Description
===========

Dir32 is a DOS command for producing a directory listing, including
long file names, even when run under versions of MS-DOS earlier than
version 7 (Win95).

It was developed by the Author for his machine that boots on demand
under Win95 or MS-DOS 6.20.  When running under MS-DOS it is useful
to be able to ascertain the full long file name of files created by
Win95.  It is also very useful to be able to check directories for
the existance of long file names before applying some pre Win95
utilities, such as the Norton Utility DS to sort a directory. If the
root directory containing Win95 directory "Program Files" is sorted,
Win95 will become confused.

Written in Borland Pascal, version 7
